D.V.T. Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 I'll save my head's gone for tomorrow, but the comments about football crowds, the whisky festival I was going to on the 22nd being postponed on Friday, and Leitch's recent mewlings about restrictions working give me a very strong feeling about what is going to be announced.Tbf, he was also said Christmas parties were ok, and then less than two hours later Public Health Scotland said don’t go to Christmas parties. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think NS will stick to her guns especially with the Leitch comments today. There is simply no justification for keeping anything restricted any longer, and as far as I can tell, no money to keep restrictions in any case.

Abdul_Latif Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Encouragingly Linda Bauld this afternoon talking about how it’s about time to lift restrictions, but it’s not her decision to make. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised by this, but good stuff. Hopefully Leitch just out on his own today, spouting his usual nonsense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elixir Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 A reminder that 'Plan B' will expire in England on the 26th. Not a chance will they extend it given the current data and backbench pressure. Even Detournement's pal Gove and his WEF lizard tentacles has rowed back and admitted he was wrong about restrictions, such is the shifting mood. It is in that context the Scottish Government's nonsense must be viewed. England is two weeks away from where they were since 19th July, which felt 99% like pre-pandemic normality. Even the continued tinkering around the edges simply must stop at this point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Hilary said........ indeed The true figure of 90 percent of covid patients in ICU being unvaccinated is impressive enough, I think it was sloppy rather than deliberate.

This is the corner these fucking psychos have backed themselves into. There is no way they can keep such nonsense in place without the emergency laws, which there will be no justification to keep. Once we get through this winter I won't be wearing a mask ever again here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeTillEhDeh Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Putting on my ex-civil servant hat...there isn't anything else he could have said. He couldn't come out and say "We made a mistake. They should be rolled back." That's for the politicians to say. Civil servants are very restricted in what they can say. In private he could be arguing for things to be relaxed, but when the decision is made he has to hit the media and give the official line. I doubt he is, but it is possible. That's fine but there are times he's answered questions that he should not answer - he's often given his personal opinion instead of saying that a decision is still to be made etc etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 It's good to see Sturgeon coming out and saying her agenda is permanent restrictions and a 'new normal'. Hopefully it will wake a few people up. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
